Flowers and Juice Jar Vase

Contributed by Leanne Guenther

I've given directions for making the flowers and for making the
vase. You don't have to do them both... You can make some
flowers and put them in a store bought vase or you can make the
vase and put in some silk flowers.

Continue adding rows of petals until you have a nice full
flower. You'll need at least 4 rows of them.

Fluff the petals out a bit to shape your flower.

Optional: spritz a bit of perfume on your flower to
scent it.

Flower Petal Templates:

I've included a picture of ONE of the flowers made with each template
so you get a feel for how they look. Each flower has 20 to 30 petals
in it. These templates aren't printable... just use the images as
a guide when cutting out your petals.

heart shaped petal template

(I think it looks like a rose or peony flower -- this is my favorite)

large pointed petal template

(I think this one looks like a water lily)

And here it is with fewer petals (about 8)

small pointed petal template

(this has twice the petals of the others... 40 to 60 petals in a flower)
